Hello, does anyone know of/had work done by any companies that can flush the oils on a zf box?

Disco3's box has done 102k now and the disco3 forum has loads of people recommending getting the oil's changed every 100k, and since the D3 will be mine for about 4 years it may as well get done.

So, where's good and where's to be avoided at all costs?

These are the people that you want to use for anything auto box related and are used by many of the franchised dealerships...

The gearbox oil and filter change is not a straight forward procedure on a Disco 3 and these guys have plenty of experience.

Shall give them a ring tomorrow and see what they say about it.

Have read a few threads about the gearbox and how big a pita it is to get properly flushed and changed.. hehe

They also look like that when changing turbos and doing various other engine bits.
Only a few bolts and some wiring to be unconnected and off goes the bodyshell.

Going to ring around them and see what prices are going to be.
